St. Louis National Pole Bending Clinic

Join the Charter Clubs of the ASHA, Suzanne Bradshaw, the ASHA Ambassador for the Western division and the St. Louis National Horse Show for a new way to promote the Saddlebred in an exciting and inspiring clinic. Carol Jones will host a clinic that will explain the basics of Pole Bending competition with American Saddlebreds. Pole Bending is a fast, timed gaming event, and a fun spectator sport as watching a great horse and rider combination is thrilling and impressive. For the first time in Saddlebred competition, Pole Bending provides education and excitement for the spectator and promotion and accessibility for the Saddlebred breed.

Carol Jones, a professional Appaloosa and Saddlebred trainer, will host this hands-on instruction event on September 25, immediately following St. Louis National’s Saturday afternoon session. For more information, contact Suzanne Bradshaw at sbrad2840@aol.com or at (501) 680-1024.
